Capichera Vendemmia Tardiva 2021
One of Capichera's great challenges: to be the first to vinify Vermentino in barriques. After fermentation and refinement, VT is put on the market no earlier than two years after the harvest. In this way it can express its strong, unmistakable and deep character, so much so that it is often considered the most representative wine of the high quality of Capichera wines.

Colour

Straw yellow with slight golden reflections, very clear.

Bouquet

Intense and complex with notes reminiscent of orange blossom, lemon, herbs, wisteria, lavender flowers, liquorice and citrus honey.

Flavour

Dry but at the same time lively and warm, rich and pulpy, with citrus and honeyed tones, the finish is long and caressing with great aftertaste persistence.

Pairing

Ideal with fruit and cream cakes, blue cheeses, aged cheeses.
